A North East landmark has made it onto one of the UK's top 20 dog walks, according to a national newspaper.
Souter Lighthouse, between Sunderland and South Shields, secured the place in the Times's list, which was put together as the National Trust prepared to launch a scheme to make its sites even more dog-friendly. The initiative will include new dog-washing facilities for muddy paws, drinking stations and downloadable dog-friendly walks round the grounds.
The Times rounded up 20 of the best days out to enjoy with your pet, whether that’s a gentle riverside ramble, a stroll along a beautiful clifftop path or an off-lead romp through the fields. And the Souter Lighthouse has made he cut.
